He is called Akasha Bhairava because he represents Chidakasha. My sweet Bhairava Natha is pervasive and there is nowhere that can be called empty and without the fullness of Lord Shiva. Even if I make my bed in the deepest darkest Hell, the light of Shiva shines there also.

Jai Ambe Jai Gurunatha. I agree with what Guruji Krishna has written. In my experience, the closer I get to the "God" the less rigid I become in my sectarianism. I can easily go into Bhairava consciousness while worshipping Sri Rama, and I can easily dissolve into Lalitambika just by intense meditation on her form. Every God-realized saint spoke in absolute terms. "I am the way" sound familiar? When you receive grace from Bhairava Natha you will understand that words and forms are just a symphony of vibration. Someday we all stand on the edge of a black hole and will be GONE! Will you be afraid or angry by this? Or will you cry tears of joy as you meet the God that destroys even death? Will you protest about His/Her lacking a "name tag" that says "Hello, my name is Shakti". Or will you sing a celebration song like a child that returns home. Be wise and pray.

It means "come closer".

What I have mentioned is also specified in the Mantra Mahodadhi. You can reference the same for more information. All you need to do, is recite the mantra causing bad effects, in a reverse manner. For example, if your mantra is "vakratuṇḍāya huṁ" then recite 108 times as "huṁ vakratuṇḍāya" and let go of the mantra by seeking forgiveness from the deity. Forgiveness is sought in your mind. No special procedures are required. If you are still facing issues, then it is best to approach a genuine guru in person and be in their presence for getting rid of bad karmas. Service to a pious guru is a sure shot way of getting rid of malefic effects.

Śrī Vidyā is strictly for initiates only. You can go for the non-tantric deity Kavacas and recite them freely without any fear.

Dear Krishna Ji, I am in deep trouble with one of the mantra giving reverse effects. What are the ways I can talk to you please. After long search you are the only one who has mentioned about anulom vilom of the mantra in one of your article about puruschcharan. Can you please email me at richasharvan@gmail.com. regards, Keshav

What does प्रसीद mean?

"This kavaca stotra (hymn) is specifically geared towards the worshippers of Śrī Lalita Tripura Sundarī, who have been initiated into the worship of the coveted Śrī Cakra, " I am assuming those who do not have this initiation cannot chant this chakra. Which kavacham should they chant instead? Many pranaams for the awesome work! I spend a lot of time on this website and have learned a lot in the past few months.
